5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

If you looked at my comment history you'll see that I mentioned that contrary to the person I'm talking about, my opinions aren't shared in mainstream media. She can have all the opinions she wants and share them, I don't give a crap about that, I'm concerned when mainstream media starts giving importance to the opinion of people who have no expertise on a subject.
And whether it’s mainstream media, or a random nobody on lemmy stating an opinion- most people will disregard it if they either don’t care about, or disagree with it.
So now, having said this- take a guess who you think should care more about your opinion here than that of Elon Musk’s daughter elsewhere in a news article:
Hint- If you guess “no one,” you’d be correct.
(I’d also accept “both can be either relevant or irrelevant based on the interest of the reader and shouldn’t be subject to scrutiny just because you think it shouldn’t be stated”)
